If there is no file extension, then it is most likely Mach-O file format. This kind of files without file extension can be executed within terminal by dragging the file to the terminal window and pressing enter. Another way is to use terminal to
cdinto the directory containing the file, and executing./filename.darwin.amd64, of course replace filename with your actual filename.
